I was having this problem when not using the included charger.
It seems that the phone actually requires to be quick charged (8V 2A) up to 65% or so and will then switch to the usual 5V 2A mode when it's reached this point.
As a result when I was using a regular charger (Nexus 7 charger, 5V 2A) the phone would "charge" but would actually slowly lose battery power during the night.
Gotta watch out for specific usb cables or charger adapters that don't provide enough power (as mentioned above).
I have 2 Nexus 7 FHD (2013) tablets and my Zenfone2 has exactly the same charger, 5.2V 1.35A
A standard cellphone charger is 5V and about 700-800mA.

I turned on Airplane mode and power saver while using a regular 5V Charger, and it was able to charge over night.....just not fully.
I thought I was the only one with this issue. Everything works fine with the included charger but when using my charger from my Nexus 4, it would charge a bit then at times start losing battery. I've used a friend's Nexus 5 charger and it has been hit and miss...sometimes it charges all the way sometimes it charges a bit and then starts losing battery.
Im also using ipad 2 charger..works well as a normal charger for zenfone 2. Especially if your gaming and charging same time..mine does not over heat..but dont recommend to do it always
In fact my question was more about who is charging all night their phones and also who is using his phone when the battery is lower than 15%.
Happy to see some others bugs on the ZenFone 2

UCH10 Fast charging not working

I have just bought the UCH10 from Sony to try out on the fast charging, its seems charging at the same rate as a regular 2.1A Charger.. Anyone facing this issue?

I don't know about the UCH10, but I know with my Powergen charger I see it going into HV (fast charge) mode. (The charger I have has an indicator for when it's in 9v mode).
However, I have noticed this device's thermal throttling is pretty aggressive. You need to let the thing idle if you expect it to charge at any reasonable rate thanks to the Snapdragon 810 being a power hog.
Confimed the UCh10 charger fast charge working
Only got 13% from 1% for 15mins
What happened!!
Mine came with the UCH10 charger and am using my short Sony usb cable that came with my headset (EC300). I went from 4% to 100% in 1 hour and 35 mins. At the end of the day with my bluetooth headset and smart watch conneted all day (12 hours) moderate use emails,mms,calls. I have about 42% remaining. It only seams to be getting better with each charge. Today it went from 5% to 100% in 1 hour and 22 mins.
Perheps Sony's fast charging is to speed up overall charging at a faster rate. As i was from Note 5, its charging takes only 10 mins to jump from 5% to 38%!!
Perheps they are both using different fast charging tech?

Both are using the same under different names. Samsung named it "Adaptive fast charging" and the rest use qualcomm's name "Quick charge".
For example mine is in the box with standard 1.5 normal charger, but I am using the charger from my dead note 4 (yes it is a quick charger one) which is charging z5p at the same speed like my note 4. Also I am monittoring the charge rate, and I can confirm that samis Adaptive charger charging at max using qualcomm's quick charge standard our z5p devices.
Edit:
If note 5 charging so fast it must be another tech from Samsung (or wrong battery stats - believe me I experienced these few times on my note 4 during flashing AOSP roms).
Cheers
Edit 2:
I can remember that note 4 when stock (tw) is charging much more aggressively during initial charge (upto around 50%, and then it just slow down), while AOSP is fast charging constantly (lower rate compared to samis stock tw rom) but use quck charge upto 90-95%.. It is a setting at the end. Yoi can force set this with custom kernel.

Redmi 5A charging time

Currently redmi 5a takes huge time for charging to 100%.
Is there is alternative method available to speed up charging without much damage to battery
Thanks in advance
Sure, try a Custom ROM with Qualcomm Fast Charging support. There are some ROMs here enabled Qualcomm Fast Charging. That might help you.

How long did you usually charge your phone until full 100%?

Is AI Charging or Scheduled Charging working with the latest firmware?

I just bought my Zenfone 5Z two weeks ago (i'm very happy with this device by the way), i have tried to use AI charging or even schedule charging but is not working, i always connect the phone during the night but it always get charge in one/two hours and it does not stop when it reach the 80%, does anyone have the same problem?
Firmware: WW_ZS620KL_90.11.162.98_20190816
Your phone is fine, the ai charging and schedule charging are not designed to stop the charging at a certain percentage, they are designed to slow down the charging rate to slow down the battery degradation.

Question Battery longevity

Hi Guys,
I recently purchased Poco f3 and with it's 33watt charging I am bit concerned about the longevity of the battery as it gets warm when charging. Can I use my samsung S10's 15W charger or can we get a custom rom which can charge the phone at 15W?

If you are planning to keep this phone for the next 2-3 years then using a slow charger makes sense. I use a 10watt charger on regular basis and use a fast charger as an exception. I think 10-18 should be fine for longevity. On a side note- I don't feel my phone gets warmer after 12.5 at fast charging.

Of course you can use it, the charging will be slower and the battery will thank you.
